That Chisholm video was both inspiring and depressing. 46 years later and we still have to even begin to tackle the same issues.

I wish she wasn’t a cop. I wish she didn’t defend cops. I wish she didn’t try to find the death penalty constitutional in CA when she says she’s against capital punishment. I really fucking wish she didn’t want to legally punish parents for children with truancy issues. I haven’t been able to find a single woman of…

The most jaw-dropping part of the Hulu doc is McFarland telling the interviewer that he actually DID rent all the luxury villas that were promised, but all the door keys were in one box and someone lost the box. As if the organizers would be like, “Oh, gosh, we’ve shelled out many thousands of dollars, but if the door …

Thank you for posting the video of Shirley Chisholm; it brought back long-buried memories. I watched her with my parents (on the television) and remember the absolute silence when she spoke; that electric feel of possibility, even if, as a child, I could not have rationally understood the import of her declaration.…

So I have my own story of being swindled by someone exactly like Mcfarland. My husband’s old boss. Get money, start up one business, fail, get money, start another, fail, get money start another, fail....repeat repeat repeat. Do minor but still illegal things on the side to make money but have the ability to convince…

In the Netflix version- did anyone else kind of freak at the guy who said that after they were told to just go get tents he said ‘we didn’t want neighbors so we started destroying, ripping, and pissing on beds in the tents around us ” or words to that effect? I found that chilling- how many of those types are out…

Ja Rule doesn’t come off well at all in either doc, but he also seems very dumb, so I believe that he believes he didn’t do anything wrong, whereas I think Billy knew he was doing something wrong — he was just expecting that somehow he’d pull it off and be so filthy rich he’d be able to pay back his creditors because…

I’m pretty sure lying to get people’s money for goods/services you have no intention or ability to produce is pretty much the textbook definition of fraud.

That's the hardest thing. I can't schedule anything for even the relative short term until I know if I am staying or moving.

I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you! I am also job searching and I am an absolute mess. I totally get that you feel like you are going to lose your marbles—I feel the same way and I only just started! Like you, I have cabin fever and I really need a distraction.

Holy shit, that was actually this guy’s second rape:

Job update: trying not to go insane from waiting. The hiring manager and pharmacy manager are meeting Monday morning, so I should finally have an answer then. I will hopefully have exciting news to share with all of you next week if I haven’t lost all of my marbles due to a combination of waiting to hear about the job…

YThis video has shaken me so badly. I’m sick to my stomach. The Archdiocese of Covington, which initially claimed not to know if they were students, is now apologizing.

With a smug smile on face like he’s accomplished something.

I would have told her to pray for the kids dying in the border camps.

That kid is a walking example of Backpfeifengesicht.

My little cousin, who I nannied, was at the March For Life. I’m heartbroken.

Just post the kid’s name so he doesn’t get into any reputable college. If he wants to be famous, we can certainly make that happen. If you want to make adult decisions, you can deal with the adult consequences. The internet never forgets. 

It takes an impressive level of stupidity to shout “Build the Wall” at an Indigenous People’s March...

I’m no psychologist, but that kid that just kept staring at him is definitely a sociopath.
